Kyocera Corporation is a Japanese company based in Kyoto, Japan. The company was founded as Kyoto Ceramic Co., Ltd in 1959 by Dr Kazuo Inamori.
Kyocera Corporation was founded on the philosophical basis that commercial success and the spiritual fulfilment of its employees are inextricably linked to acting as a responsible citizen within society. This includes preserving the environment and striving for social improvement within the communities in which the corporation operates. The company's history over the intervening years has demonstrated that business success has gone hand-in-hand with the implementation of environmental and social initiatives.
Kyocera's R&D focus can be divided into two broad categories - products whose primary aim is environmental protection, such as solar cells or heat exchangers, and products which offer an environmentally-gentle alternative to an established technology.
Kyocera's worldwide operations are extremely diverse, but all share the common thread of ceramics, our core technology. This diversification has been enormously beneficial in ensuring financial stability in an increasingly volatile global economy.
The company makes everything from ceramic hip joints to costume jewellery, from silicon chips to mobile phones handsets.
Kyocera Mita is the Document Imaging division of the multi-billion dollar Kyocera Corporation and one of the world's largest manufacturers and leading providers of document imaging devices that offer a total solution for any print, copy, scan or fax requirements. Kyocera has a wide range of advanced, environmentally friendly products, which offer significantly low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and high reliability.
Kyocera Mita embodies Kyocera's desire to improve on the environmental impact of an established technology and developed the ECOSYS engine, which offers you an alternative approach to cartridge printing and challenges the idea that environmentally responsible alternatives are more expensive.
The traditional laser printer based on a toner cartridge forces you, by design, to scrap everything mechanically clever about the printer when the toner runs out. Kyocera have designed our printers in such a way that when toner runs dry, that's all you replace, in a clean and convenient cassette. The drum, developer and cleaning system have been built to last. As a result we are able to offer page printers that conform to all software standards yet are capable of printing three times as much for your money. Since the acquisition of Mita, we've applied the same long-life drum technology to our copier based multifunctional products, to offer similar ecological and economical benefits in a clean and convenient cassette.
As well as the continuous development of technology solutions to the environmental challenges posed by today's business, Kyocera has an extensive programme of social and environmental activities ranging from global initiatives to local community programmes.
In 2001, Kyocera identified a need for an information resource that would enable organisations to share best practice regarding business environmental initiatives. The free-to-join Green Card network, with its online portal, regular newsletters and publications, and annual conference and seminar, now helps around 4000 organisations from the public and private sector learn about reducing the impact of their office activities.
